    About this House

    Rare opportunity to acquire a 0.87-acre infill development site in the heart of Spanaway, one of Pierce County’s fastest-growing residential corridors. Zoned NCOR (Neighborhood Corridor), the property benefits from an allowable residential density of 24 to 40 dwelling units per acre, supporting efficient, higher-density housing within an established urban neighborhood. The current conceptual development plan includes six newly constructed fourplex buildings together with the adaptive reuse and conversion of the existing residence into a fourplex, creating a 28-unit residential community. Incorporating the existing home into the development concept offers a meaningful advantage by preserving a substantial portion of the existing structure, potentially reducing demolition costs, shortening construction timelines, lowering material requirements, and maximizing the productive use of improvements already in place. This approach also provides an opportunity to enhance overall project economics while delivering a cohesive residential community. With continued demand for attainable housing and a limited supply of infill land, the property presents a compelling opportunity for developers and builders seeking a well-located residential project in the South Sound.

      "I've raised my 15yr old daughter in this home. I no longer live here but visit my mother often. When I lived here it was a Great neighborhood. It's actually not that bad, there are just a few unneighborly people 😬 living in the area. They come & go, but most people living here have been here @ least 10yrs. Which is Great 😀, like a family on our block. Kids went to school together, and still have a close relationship with the neighbors till this day!!! 😁💖🏘️"
